Description
Having been one of the originators of the Country House movement in the 1980's, Richard and Mouse then travelled overseas working and absorbing the 'foodie' world with a view to opening Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse - their intimate gourmet getaway.
In its awesome setting with splendid views of the mountains and running with crystal clear streams and waterfalls, Cleopatra is the ultimate in peace, tranquillity and solitude.
It is ideal for its intended purpose as a restful refuge with professional yet understated service and most of all a gourmet experience to remember. All the ingredients are in place for a complete treat:
* warm snug beds with mohair blankets and crisp, fresh cotton sheets. * a spectacular view of the mist covered mountains. emerging from the early morning sun. * the aromas of a country kitchen tempting hunger heightened by the brisk mountain air. * loving meals of hearty soups. * vegetables, freshly caught trout, local cheeses and homemade breads. * bundles of fresh herbs and vegetables just picked from the kitchen garden. * a friendly diningroom filled with the quiet buzz of contented conversations. * a roaring fire in the lounge, cantilevered over a trout-filled dam
Choose just the right wine from the underground wine cellar and prepare your senses for the tastes and flavours that follow Richard's legendary talks extolling the pleasures and practices of his food preparation .
We are tucked away in the beautiful Kamberg valley close to Giant's Castle Nature Reserve, and all the normal mountain pursuits such as swimming, walking and hiking are available.
Please ask when you arrive for our full seasonal range of activities on the farm and in the area.
Regret, we do not accommdate children under 12 years.
